    Gotta admit I’m tempted by the fusion, and in the spirit of it, to steer the concept further away from a European style, I’d pair it with matcha ice cream.

      Its so called bicolor croissant that you put tape of colored dough on top of regular dough before forming. Its often intentional to bake regular dough pale to show contrast between the colored dough.

      Source: I searched recipe for cacao-colored bicolor croissant but never tried.

    French people wouldn’t mind this and if some did they’d still rather swallow their tongues rather than admitting that you managed to make them angry.

      I’m French, this looks great. A true french reaction would be “uh ! I’ll try it”

        Right?! We’ll be upset only if it tastes bad. Given by how pale they look I’m not confident it won’t.

    Man I love croissants, they must be one of my top 5 things to eat. Fresh ones don’t really need anything at all. They’re already buttery. These mango croissants look amazing.

    They make a great side for almost anything too. With eggs? Hell yes. With a glass of wine? Duh. Add them to an Irish breakfast with black pudding? Totally works. Cold, on a chicken waldorf sandwich? Of course. With a dollop of ice cream or crème fraîche? If only I could be so lucky.

    There’s really no wrong way to enjoy a croissant, unless you’re putting something totally inedible like drain cleaner with it. There are some foods I would never add, like spray cheese or olives, but that’s really just personal preference.

    There is not a single world where the people who sent death threats if they even exist are French. Variations of croissant are also common in France and the one shown above in the picture looks highly qualitative.

    Trolls on the other end pretending to be French and outraged, now that seems more likely.

    If the croissant variant just looks like shit French people will likely make fun of it. But death threats? Bullshit.

      I mean, they could be French trolls, I’d wager that French trolls would be even more likely to do this.

    So many of these posts lend credence to the “Ugly American” claim that Euros make of us. Especially the OP that makes a claim yet provides no proof. And you all go along with it.

    Why hate on the French? It’s a beautiful wonderful country full of great people, and we would not be The USA if they had not intervened a looong time ago. Seems we’ve forgotten this debt. Don’t come back at me about liberating France in WW2 because we were part of an overall allied force doing so; we were far, far from being the only ones.

    I guess it’s all OK now to be rude to everyone. Expect the same treatment back atcha, and don’t scratch your skinheads wondering why.

      As a Belgian I can proudly say:

      Fuck the Fr*nch. Fuck their awful language. And fuck them thinking they can get through life knowing only one language and demanding people adapt to them.
